Title: Exchange 2003 - New mailboxes not created

One word....     monitoring     You shouldn't have found replication was broke based on symptoms. You need to know it when it occurs. This could have turned into a very evil issue for you if a symptom didn't pop up for a while which is highly likely.     joe From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Jared Manhat Sent: Monday, November 22, 2004 8:40 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: RE: [ActiveDir] Exchange 2003 - New mailboxes not created Well, I figured it out. One of the genius’s here removed DNS from our DC acting as the pdc, so AD was out of sync with the mail server’s AD. I re-added it DNS back and once AD sync’d I did a manual update on RUS and everything is fine now.   Thanks a lot everyone for your help.   Jared Manhat Systems Administrator Accutest Laboratories From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Mulnick, Al Sent: Friday, November 19, 2004 11:48 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: RE: [ActiveDir] Exchange 2003 - New mailboxes not created   Recipient Update Service.    Keep in mind the mailbox only shows up in the Exchange System Manager after an instance has been created in the store (after mail has arrived for the user else they have logged in once at least).  Otherwise you only see the mailbox data in the Active Directory.   Send them a piece of email and see if you don't find the mailbox then :)   From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Jared Manhat Sent: Friday, November 19, 2004 9:56 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: RE: [ActiveDir] Exchange 2003 - New mailboxes not created Whats RUS?   Jared Manhat Systems Administrator Accutest Laboratories From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Michael B.

Or they are just delayed?   If they never show up - I'd check out my RUS configuration.   From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Jared Manhat Sent: Friday, November 19, 2004 9:29 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: [ActiveDir] Exchange 2003 - New mailboxes not created Importance: High I have an Exchange 2003 server running on Windows Server 2k3. I just noticed Wednesday that if I create a new user account in AD2k3 and give the user an Exchange mailbox, the mailbox does not show up in the Exchange System Manager. Any ideas? I’ve never seen this behavior before and I can find anything on the web relating to it. I am not running Exchange 2k3 SP1, I didn’t install the SP because I cant find a comprehensive list of what they’ve changed. Thanks for the help.
